My gallbladder surgery is scheduled for tomorrow. I have to say I'm a little nervous and have been stress eating some. Been over my calorie limit the past few days due to the crappy diet they recommended. It has actually helped with the pain but it's a "bland" diet high in highly processed carbs which leads to me overeating. I did try to eat a couple of apples the other day and that was a mistake. I'll get back on track as my body allows me. I'll deal with the sudden weight gain (glycogen and water) after I recover. For now it's more important to control the pain and minimize pain medication.
Calorie intake and consistency are the key factors to weight loss and maintenance.
Hoping everybody has a great day!
